News is a fully configurable RSS reader / ticker for Linux that displays RSS feeds as a ticker bar on you desktop. Open feed links in your favourite browser. Scrolling is really fast and ***smooth***.

Highly configurable: you can link News with your favourite browser, bookmark your favorite RSS feeds, set scrolling speed, update delay, fonts, font sizes and colors, dimension and location on the screen of the ticker, display the ticker inside a "draggable" window or without one, display or not a clock, and more.

News is written in C with GTK+2.0 and Libxml2. It runs fine on both Linux and Windows operating systems.
